Which is a huge part of the problem.
I can design a rad sign with my dog’s name on it, blanket my town with 1500 fluorescent orange and dark blue signs, and probably get an old hound elected as mayor.

No. The signs aren't really for promoting candidates, theyre almost strictly for reminding people there's an election and energizing the folks who already like those candidates (likely for party reasons) to vote for them AND talk about them.
A good solution to the sign problem is to ask your town for an ordinance that bans them on public property - this will severely cut back on the volume and limit it to parties and candidates needing to find individuals willing to host their signs on private property.
